- Nigerians disagree with Olisa Agbakoba on certificate Forgery Noise
An ex-President of the Nigerian Bar association (NBA), Senior advocate of Nigeria and rights lawyer, Olisa Agbakoba has expressed exasperation over the continued controversy being raked up over the President Bola Tinubu’s Chicago State University saga.
Urging lawyers and others discussing the issue in the media should stop their fireworks and await the judgment of the Supreme Court, the Senior Advocate said: “The cacophony of discordant voices on Tinubu / Atiku over the certificate matter is completely out of hand. This utter nonsense from arm chair lawyers is heating up Nigeria dangerously.”
Agbakoba in a post on “x” Monday said: “Please can we keep our opinions and views to ourselves awaiting a decision of the Supreme Court.
“I am so ashamed to see Lawyers on Television arguing one way or the other on the merits or demerits of the Chicago State University matter. This is most unhelpful! I call out all media that tolerate this nonsense of adjudicating the CSU matter on TV and Newspapers.
“I urge the President of the Nigerian Bar Association to call out lawyers that breach rules of ethics by turning the media into a Court of Law.
“Can we please stop heating up our country!!! Let us allow the Supreme Court of Nigeria to make a judicial pronouncement which is binding on us all!!!! This public nonsense must stop.
– OA.”
But Nigerians also gave their response…
@BolanleA4 said: ” I should wait for human being like me to dictate whether Tinubu forge his/her certificate? Because the person is so called a judge? Do we have any function sector in Nigeria right now?
Tinubu forged his/her certificate. Simple as a Abc.”

My dear respected SAN,
We love and cherish your contributions ever since, but on this issue of certificate forgery by the INEC-Select president, we will not be quiet a bit, because we know what will come out of the Supreme Court!
We press a STAND on the forgery, because it is a real national issue that must not be swept under carpet.
How can a president of a country forge a certificate to rule over the people and you said it should not be debated everywhere in the world?
We expected you to call out the president to step down immediately it was discovered he forged. This is not about the Supreme Court, it is not about Tinubu, it is not about lawyers or media, this is about Nigeria, and Nigerians!
They took our right to choose our leaders and they imposed a forger on us and we should all be quiet and wait for the judiciary that has been siding with plenty CORNs.
The supreme Court should be filled with Judges of impeccable characters and wisdom of the constitution, is that what we have today?”

Dear @oagbakoba
I’ll start on a gentle note to give you the benefit of the doubt that you speak out of disgust for the treacherous and d◇mbest comments made by YOUR COLLEAGUES from the APC, notably, Festus Keyamo. And that you are not writing this to muzzle the public opinions of Well-Meaning Nigerians.
If the above is the case, i’d advise you to speak more directly to the legal vipers that have infested the legal profession, otherwise, please keep quiet.
What Nigerians would not tolerate are the pontifications of men who should know better and who could have done better.
Lawyers should come down from the high horses and the exclusiveness because you all have failed us. We do not need any further interpretations from the Supreme Court to determine if Bola Ahmed Tinubu forged the CSU certificate. That much has been established already. What we need the Supreme Court to do is simple: disqualify him and cause him not to enjoy the benefits of his crime.
Thank you.”

” You have been silence in various miscarriages of justice’s happening in the country. Please continue to do so.
You can’t gag anyone.
Where were you when the president of NBA was disparaging EU report?”
@adenike
“
Sir, the NBA president you called on is part of the problem. He was on TV to offer bias opinion on a case that was at PEPT level? He was seen with Tinubu, a party to the case few times before their “judgment”.
The plan is to set the mood to their already prepared verdict again.”..
@joeJohnseen
You can see all the responses on his timeline..
Unfortunately, any Nigerian still waiting and hoping on the Supreme Court of Nigeria to do the needful might be disappointed…. Who appointed those Judges? Same APC government abi?
Have you heard what Justice Ariwola said about ignoring public opinions?
These are same people Olisa Agbakoba is telling Nigerians to hope on?
So, after the Supreme Court completes what Justice Tsammani and hia crew started…. Then, Olisa Agbakoba would tell Nigerians, it’s what it’s.. We should move on and allow Such putrefying scandal as Certificate forgery be plastered on Nigerians for Generations to come?
Enugu Governor continuing with a forged NYSC certificate?
Such a terrible time we’re in….
